S. r. Chr0HieIe.l
Thesecretary of the navy has shown
considerable interest of late in the
scheme of forming a naval reserve, in
the manner devised in England and
adopted by some other nations OF
Europe, and which is, in brief, en-
couraging the construction of mer-
chant steamships which can, in an
emergency, be'readily converted into
cruisera. In his late report he points
to the fact that several European
governments have made annual con-
tributions based on tonnage to com
panies constructing new vessels, the
considerations being the privilege of
using these vessels In time of war,
when cruisers, troop-ships or trans
ports may be in great demand.
Special attention IS directed TO the
line of first-class steamers about to
be established from Vancouver to
Japan. Mr.. Whitney says that 2
subsidy is likely to be paid amount
fng to 100000 year, and that there
will also be contributed from the
naval revenue fund So per ton an
hually for each ship constructed for
the route, which will increase the
subsidy S125, ,0OOper year. He adds,
perhnently: Under such eom2eti-
ton it is quite easy to conjecture
what will become of the American
flag and our resources in the way of
naval reserve in the north Pacific
1t is obvious that the idea of a
competent naval reserve for the
United States must involve govern
the building Of steamships. We
certainly cannot undertake to com
pete with the heavily subsidized
lines Of Great Britain, France and
Germany without extending material
assistance in some way to our steam-
ers and their builders and owners.
Secretary Whitney IS entirely iogi~
cal in this, and his suggestion as to
the disappearance of our flag and the
lack of naval reserve IN the north Is
unanswerable.
OF course il will be seen at once
that his suggestion cuts the ground
from under Cleveland's feet. by pro
viding ready way of reducing tho
surplus, but the president and secre-
tary of the navy can harmonize their
respective views at their leisure. The
topic of interest Is rather the revival
of our marine interests than the set
Element of a controversy between the
executive and a member OF his cab
met.
Whitney's plan, if such it can be
called, VIII avoid the odium which
seems to be inseparably attached to Il
subsidy, pure and simple. Out OF the
treasury surplus there can be created
at naval reserve fund, similar to that
of England, to be Gsed in the same
way. Steamships can be built, under
the approval and general supervision
of the navy department, and GER
tain amount per ton paid them, on
condition that in case Of war they
shall be at the service OF the govern
ment. The fund may be large or
small, as expediency may demand,

The secretary of war in his report
says that ''of the l42 rifle guns that
ara now to be found at various points
along our 1000 miles of sea coast and
uUr 2500 miles of frontier, 116 are OF
obsolete pattern, and of the remain
tWeuty-siX there are only few that
are mounted in manner to perform
effective service" In Il recent lecture
delivered at Governors island Lient.
" cavey of the Second artillery SAID
that no part OF our coast could with
stand attack from the armament of
England, France, Italy, Russia or
Denmark: that in case of a war with
England over the British possessions
England could we'll afford to lose
Manitoba and interior Canada and
take III return q strip of our eastern
coast. Our Notifications should, to
be efficient, begin at Penobscot bay
with guns of at least twenty inches
calibcr, as the guns of European
uavies had ten-mile range. Port
land and Dover, n. IL D., were without
such defeuces, and so was Boston
harb0r. Narragansett bay needed
twenty-inch guns to save Newport
from bombardment, and to protect
New York city guns of at least
twenty-incn caliber should be placed
on Hart's island, at Hewlett's and
Wil!et's point on the Sound, at
Rockaway inlet and Coney island.
New York could only be defended by
fortiiications in tho lower bay, as the
enormous range OF modern naval
guns made Forts Lafayette and
WadswOrth useless without outside
fortiiications. The property in dan
ger ut Portland, Boston, Newport and
New York in case of war is estimated
at S3,500,000,O0O. Let it be noted
that this is the statement OF our de-
fenseless condition on the Atlantic
s,aboard. If this is so it does not
take moments reflection 10 convince
anyone that on the Pacific coast we
are not only absolutely helpless
against the naval guns Of the great
powers Of Europe, hut wo are help
les against the ironclads of either
Chin@ or Japan.
